Research summary
AI-generated

Daniel S. Egel works on plant pathology, focusing on diseases affecting vegetable crops such as cucumbers, melons, watermelons, tomatoes, and peppers. His research covers identifying and managing bacterial and fungal pathogens (like Xanthomonas, Phytophthora, and Erwinia) that cause crop diseases, and testing disease-control strategies including fungicides, organic treatments, and soil amendments. Much of this work has practical applications for improving disease management in agricultural field and greenhouse settings.
